Skins Series 5 Shorts
Your new secret weapon when tearing up the track or smashing strength training. The Skins Series 5 Shorts offer targeted compression support for major muscle groups, including glutes, quads and hamstrings. A reduction in muscle vibration and distortion during activity increases comfort to improve performance.
Designed for recovery, the Skins Series 5 Shorts are the perfect addition to your wardrobe. Constructed using the highest level of compression, the shorts support your muscles at all times. The compressive nature of the shorts works to improve blood circulation to help you recover faster after intense exercise. The compressive fit increases blood flow and reduces lactic acid build-up to improve oxygenation of muscle tissue, this, in turn, reduces muscle soreness and increases recovery times. Within the shorts , a sweat-wicking fiber has been used to keep you comfortable and dry at all times. The moisture-managing fabric moves excess moisture and sweat away from the skin where it can be easily evaporated. Mesh panels help to improve breathability by letting cool air circulate the shorts to regulate temperature. The mesh panel also doubles as a small pocket to store your vital items. An elasticated internal drawcord allows you to adjust the fit of the shorts to a more personalised one and lastly, gold reflective logos and stich seams increase your visibility in low light conditions.
Size Guide
Forget your usual size. Use the Skins size guides to determine what fit, for what product, is best for you.
Bordering two sizes? Suppose when finding out your size from the guides below, you sit on the line between two sizes. If that's the case, Skins recommend choosing the smaller size for tights, if you have an athletic body type, otherwise chose the larger size. Skins always recommend choosing the larger size for tops. If you need further guidance in selecting the right size, get in touch with our customer service team - they'll be more than happy to help.
Choosing the right size for Compression Sportswear is very important, so if you're not sure, talk to us!
How To Wear SKINS Tights
If you're trying to get into a pair of Long Tights, Skins suggest you scrunch them up from the waist down to the ankle and put one foot in first - the same as you would do if you were putting on a pair of pantyhose. Do the same on the other leg. Then gradually pull each leg up - taking care to keep the seams running up your legs as you go.
Gentlemen, make sure the pouch is at the front when you put the Tights on to ensure comfort - you won't want to be running around with your Tights on backwards.
